The sky's lights have been switched off But the stars flicker with bloodshot eyes trying to stay awake i need them to witness this I stand helpless Like a lamb that had just been born Falling to the ground after attempting to put one foot in front of the other Sometimes I whisper Other times I scream Both times I plead through the vastness That if someone could be so kind as to scoop up a heap of liquid cement And fill up this bottomless hole in my gut And maybe while these vicious winds dry it up *I'll learn how to be whole again..*
